Apologies in advance for a question that may or may not make any sense. Fact is, there
seems to be no other place to go but here to find a healthy collection of Apache +
mod_perl + experience. Mailing list archive searches of mine must be targetting the
wrong keywords because nothing has helped.
Setup:
Apache/1.3.26 (Win32) and mod_perl/1.26_01-dev. Internet Explorer 6.0.26 and Mozilla
1.0 (2002053012) on the browser end. Let my newbie roots show. :)
Problem:
I am writing a very basic discussion form under the above platform. When a form reply
is POSTed with a CONTENT_LENGTH greater than 420 characters, all data from the form
seems to get wiped out.
Example:
A) CONTENT_LENGTH: 153
CONTENT_TYPE: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Message body Apache/mod_perl actually see: A simple test. I don't ask that goddamn
much from you, mod_perl. WHY MUST YOU DO THIS?

B) CONTENT_LENGTH: 859
CONTENT_TYPE: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Message body Apache/mod_perl actually see: Blank.
Message body: With ATI’s unique positioning in the value space with RADEON 9000
PRO, what does it compete with? Officially, the answer is NVIDIA’s GeForce4 MX series.
The MSRP of the RADEON 9000 PRO matches up very closely with GeForce4 MX 440, while
the RADEON 9000’s equivalent would be the GeForce4 MX 420. But in the real world,
things are much more complicated than that. NVIDIA has two GeForce4 Ti 4200 variants
with street prices that are very competitive with RADEON 9000 PRO. And if that wasn’t
enough, making things even more complicated are RADEON 8500 and RADEON 8500LE cards
manufactured by ATI and its partners that are also selling within a handful of dollars
of the RADEON 9000 PRO. But before we get into those aspects in more detail, lets
discuss the roots of the RADEON 9000/RADEON 9000 PRO.
Answer:
You tell me! :) A problem with Apache? A problem with mod_perl? A problem with
IE/Mozilla? Do I need to be posting large forms such as this using multipart/form-data
with mod_perl? Please. Help.
Ever humble,
S. Syed
